The team embarked on their journey from Accra at 1 pm and landed at Moroni International Airport at 10 pm local time (7 pm Ghana time) via Ethiopia Airlines.

Head coach Chris Hughton accompanied the entire squad of 25 players who have been part of the camp since the beginning of preparations for this month’s qualifiers.

The game against Comoros is scheduled for the Moroni Stadium on Tuesday, November 21, 2023.
